from Greg Logan of Newsday,

The situation between Nolan and his goaltender undoubtedly is the most sensitive right now. Michel Ouellet scored Tampa Bay’s first goal at 6:51 of the first period after DiPietro went behind his net to play the puck and gave it away to Jeff Halpern, who fed Ouellet for a shot on the open net.

“We ask him over and over again not to play the puck as much,” Nolan said of DiPietro. “He’s one of the best puck-handlers in the league, but you just can’t overhandle it. When you overhandle it, you get yourself in trouble a little bit."…

Showing his frustration, Nolan said of DiPietro: “The only thing you can do is keep going through it over and over again. You can’t do that. You’ve got to let our defense handle it a little bit more. He just wants to play it. What can you do?”

more on the Islanders…

If Nolan thinks he’s got problems with DiPietro, maybe he’d like to deal with Dom for a few games. I still say they should fit Dom with a shock collar that’s activated any time he goes behind the net. grin

However, that assumes that Dom is actually good at handling the puck...instead of resorting to it out of sheer boredom. LOL
